A big thank you to everyone who attended in person and online. All told we had about ~250 at the venue and we’re told perhaps a hundred or more on Sara’s channel on Justin.tv. A round of thanks to Munjal Shah, David Weekly, David Marks, and Ted Rheingold for four outstanding short talks and to Talktiva, Gigya and Satisfaction for demos. A shout out to the bub.blicio.us crew for video. Since everyone helped with tickets we’re going to continue to move towards upscale events in quieter venues. Video and more photos as soon as we get them. If you’re uploading to flicker please tag ‘em ‘founderhacks‘ and ‘stirr‘. We’ll post the talk video and more photos from the event soon.
Just in: the Mercury News coverage of Silicon Valley Networking featuring STIRR. We’re on the front page of the business section.

Fresh from the New Year and STIRR’s 120 Startup Winter Wonderland Holiday party, STIRR starts the year with a packed house at Illusions in Palo Alto. There were three firsts that happened: first is our pleasure to work with SUN Microsystems as the sole sponsor for the event (Sun has STIRR’s Mixer booked exclusively until April). The second is our ‘Audience Choice Award’ which the crowd chooses the winning 60 Second Spot. And last but not least we’ve started experimenting with letting the presenters use slides on stage.
Guest Host, Bambi Francisco, CBS Marketwatch and Vator.tv
Audience Choice Award and Raffle:
Dan Beltramo from Vizu Answers accepting the audience choice award.
A new feature at the main event. The audience selects one lucky presenter to win a SUN x2200 M2 Server. How do we measure the response? STIRR’s new trusty portable DB Meter.
This month’s Audience Choice Award went to 
, by a whole 5 db on the meter. Congratulations Vizu! (And a double congratulations on raising a successful round of financing).
The only downside of using a portable db-meter approach is that we don’t have visual feedback on the display screen for everyone to see while they’re whooping it up. We’re noodling on it, but if anyone has some experience with data capture equipment and display tools, please contact us.
